I am oh so very excited!  I get to host my very first giveaway and for one of my favorite stores, Safeway!

Okay, here's the scoop:

The Safeway family of stores (which includes Dominick´s, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Vons, and Genuardi´s) is making it simple to give back with "2 Ways 2 Earn" cash for your schools with Box Tops for Education and the "10% Goes Back to Schools" program.

To help your local schools even further just look for the "10% Goes Back to Schools" yellow school bus tags on over 2,000 of your favorite items throughout Safeway from August 11th - September 14th. When you purchase participating products with your Club Card, Safeway will give 10% of the purchase price to the local school of your choice.

Here´s how it works:

  • Check your receipt from August 11 - September 14. The total will be updated each time you shop.
  • Beginning on September 18, a redemption code will be printed at the bottom of your receipt.
  • Visit backtoschools.escrip.com before October 13 to choose your favorite participating local school, then simply enter your redemption code to make your donation.

Safeway and General Mills, through "MyBlogSpark" provided me with a $25 Safeway gift card in addition to a Bonus Box Tops certificate with a value of 50 Bonus Box Tops. I'm heading out today to do some shopping and rack up those Boxtops for my kids' school!
